In Memoriam; former President
Maryanne Aman

In her retirement Maryanne held multiple board, but most notably was our gracious President from 2005-2007. On a personal level she was extremely kind and patient. She never raised her voice at Board meetings, but mostly would listen, and never commented on hearsay. Maryanne was very generous to her family and club members, often bringing sweets and treats to meetings. She was well respected and became much loved, with a great laugh and sense of humor. Truly a special lady, and a tribute to our club. She will be greatly missed.
